GABS Hottest 100 Craft Beers voting is open

As of 12pm AEDT today you can cast your votes in the GABS Hottest 100 Aussie Craft Beers of 2023.

Now in its 16th year and considered one of the biggest polls of its type in the world, you can now select your five favourite craft beers of 2023 here. Voting is open until January 14.

Over 60,000 consumers registered in the 2022 poll where 2,140 different beers were voted on. Mountain Culture’s Status Quo pale ale took out top spot (pictured above) followed by two previous champions in Balter’s XPA and BentSpoke’s Crankshaft IPA. In addition to the main Hottest 100 list, GABS also releases the Hottest Indie Beers, Hottest New Beers, and Hottest Next Beers (101-200) of the year.

This year all voters will qualify for the draw to win a share of prizes valued at $10,000 while countdown parties will take place nationwide on January 27 including at First Choice Liquor in Sydney’s inner west where results will be broadcast live via the Hottest 100 podcast hosted by Brews News’ Matt Kirkegaard.
